Sigma DP1 Does Landscape



Green Rock, originally uploaded by jjvornov.

We took a short holiday hike in the central Maryland mountains. Catoctin National Park contains the Presidential retreat, Camp David. It was an overcast, intermittantly drizzly day.

I brought both the Nikon and the DP1, but left the heavy Nikon in the trunk of the car. With the f/4 lens, the DP1 needed ISO 400 for well exposed images along the trail. While it was nice to have a camera in my pocket, I did loose some exposure flexibility. As always, the DP1 image rendering is very special.

I'm an MD, PhD Neurologist who left a successful academic career on the Faculty of The Johns Hopkins Medical School to develop new treatments in Biotech and Pharma. I became fascinated with how people actually make decisions based on the science of decision theory and emerging understanding of how the brain works to make decisions. My passion now is this deep explanation of what has been the realm of philosophy, psychology and self help but is now understood as brain function. By understanding our brains, I believe we can become happier, more successful people.
